Someone in the UK is auctioning off a really nice 2006 Ford F-250 Super Duty King Ranch. Its in (Forest Green Clearcoat) - not often you see one in that color. $37,791 is a average price for it (I suppose) considering the displayed mileage and the fact that it’s a King Ranch.

It must cost a fortune to operate a car like that in Europe.

In Belgium on pickups and other utility vehicles you do not pay taxes when they are registered to a company or independent worker, so a big engine is not a problem. There is still the fuel problem. Lots of those running on gasoline are converted to LPG.

The Ford Super Duty in the link is a Turbo Diesel; most Ford Super Duties are naturally diesel. But I suppose diesel cost just as much as petrol in Europe, no?

Well, indeed this one is diesel, about LPG I was thinking to US cars in general, e.g. Dodge Ram and others.

About fuel price, it depends much on the countries. For example in Luxembourg both gasoline and diesel are cheaper than in neighborhood countries, because less taxed.

In UK & Switzerland diesel is more expensive than gasoline.
I am not sure for other countries, but usually the diesel is a little cheaper I think.
In France & Belgium it is "much" cheaper because less taxed, hence the high number of diesel vehicles in these two countries.
Here in Brussels 1L of gasoline at its cheapest price is 1.345 €, where 1L of diesel is 1.087 €

Edit: by gasoline I mean petrol, I never know how to call that fuel type in English (UK/US seem to not use always the same name, in addition of that)
